CAO Arcana Firewalker Cigar Review (Part 2 ) | #LeeMack912 (S08 E 19)

The CAO Arcana Firewalker, the second in the brand’s Arcana Series, is coming to stores in early February and bringing a historic way of aging tobacco to the modern humidor.

The Nicaraguan filler undergoes an aging process called chincagre, which General Cigar Co. refers to as “an archaic process of primary aging used by local tobacco farmers in Western Nicaragua.” Specifically, in the Masatepe region, where the filler is grown, the tobacco is placed in a large pile called a pilón and then buried deep in volcanic soil for two months. The company says that those conditions allow the tobacco to ferment naturally, locking in an inherently sweet and aromatic quality. Once that stage is completed, the pilón goes to the factory for a second round of fermentation that lasts nine months.

That tobacco then gets paired with an Ecuadorian habano rosado wrapper and a Nicaraguan binder and is rolled in to a 6 1/2 x 56 toro gordo vitola. It is made at American Caribbean Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua, with production limited to 5,000 boxes of 20 cigars that will be offered exclusively to the U.S. market. The suggested retail price is $11.99

“The Arcana series is an opportunity to unite CAO fans with rare tobacco methods they might not otherwise learn about on their own,”

The CAO Arcana Firewalker is the follow up to the CAO Arcana Mortal Coil, a 6 1/8 x 50 toro that was released in February 2021. That cigar was notable for using andullo tobacco in its filler, a fermentation technique that is found primarily in the Dominican Republic. Instead of placing tobacco into pilónes, andullo tobacco is wrapped with palm tree pods into long rolls called yaguas after the leaves are harvested. The pods are bound tightly with rope and rooted into the ground, which results in a densely packed log of tobacco that is known for delivering a concentrated and often sweet flavor.
